do not plan on going in the wilderness area. Sticking to BLM or forest service land. North of cokeville. I have a Greys river, kemmerer ranger district map that I've been looking at an then checking stuff on google earth. I'm not looking for anyone's secret spot . Just looking to be pointed in any direction that will get me away from people. What should a person expect. Is it people all over or is it fairly easy to escape people an pressure? We would like to ideally spike in 2/3 miles an hunt from there.

No unit in particular. We're gonna apply for a general archery tag.

The general tag, if that's what you get, will be good for all of the "general" units during the regular rifle season. If you want to hunt archery you buy the archery license to go along with your general tag, and that allows you to hunt those same general units in September.
